BAIT FISHERY [6 records]

Record 1 2023-07-04

English

Subject field(s)

  • Environmental Management
CONT

Catch disposition. In areas where not all the catch is marketed, at-sea monitoring provides the most accurate catch data. At sea, fishery observers should accurately record the number of individuals by species, note whether the shark is alive or dead when landed and record the final disposition of each shark brought aboard a vessel. Disposition is the final fate of the shark(e. g. saved for market, used for bait, discarded live, discarded dead, discarded after removing fins, etc.). Codes should be made for each possible disposition on field data sheets, that are both easy to use and to remember; commonly, initials or letters are used that correspond to each type of disposition.

Live bait fishing is an essential component of the pole-and-line tuna fishery, whereby small fishes are caught in rectangular lift nets, often using lights at night to lure them to the water's surface... Bait fishing takes place within the atoll lagoon around reefs prior to each offshore tuna fishing trip. The captured baitfish are kept alive in tanks in the vessels’ hold until the pole-and-line fishing begins.

[Thirty-seven percent] of the commercial fishers surveyed reported collaborating with fishers other than their own crew when catching bait, and the owner of the vessel used is the person that is responsible for reporting the catch. This highlights an important social aspect of the bait fishery that is missing from official catch records.
